How can I develop for iPhone using a Windows development machine?
I want to write an application for Iphone but I don't have a Mac machine. Ussually, I setup a Hackintos on my laptop to do this. Can we do this directly on window environment? which tools?
Thanks for your help!
No, you cannot do this directly from Windows. Get a mac mini.
By Apple's definition, this is impossible. They 'require' you to use a macintosh, however, you can install VMWare on your Windows machine to run Mac OSX. That should work, however I recommend you just buy a cheap Mac (used, maybe Mac Mini).

I'm new to iPhone programming. Can I run Xcode on windows system? Is it possible to build an iPhone app on windows pc?
No. Xcode only runs on Mac OS X. You'll need to buy a Mac - and a recent one too, because the latest version of Xcode only runs on 10.8 now.
You can use platforms like Monotouch and Unity to develop on Windows, but you'll still need a Mac for simulation/testing and deployment.

Is it possible to run an IPA file in an iPhone simulator on Windows?
I spent enough time searching that is there any iPhone simulator for windows? I saw number of threads in StackOverFlow and other blogs but did not found accepted answer.
I need iPhone simulator for windows to which i can install IPA for testing.
what usually do is
install Machine emulator in your windows
then install MacOS in virtual machine for test.
The answer is no. You need to have (Mac) OS X to run the iPhone Emulator. You can try to install OS X on a PC (via Virtual Machine or "hackintosh") though.

Can you tell me how to install Xcode in windows 7 .... Or there is any other way to develop Iphone app on windows 7 ???
X-code is primarily made for OS-X or iPhone development on Mac systems. Versions for Windows are not available. However this might help!
There is no way to get Xcode on Windows; however you can use a different SDK like Corona instead although it will not use Objective-C (I believe it uses Lua). I have however heard that it is horrible to use.

I've got a standard windows machine, if I duel boot it with mac OS Lion or whatever is newest. Will I be able to develop apps and fully use the enviorments if I dont use an original mac machine ?
No.
I think there is no chance to install Mac OS on a non-Mac Hardware except Mac OS 10.7+. Mac OS 10.7+ is runnable in Virtual Machines. But it is very slow and often crashes. So absolutely no environment to develop (although Xcode would run in the VM).
My tip: Buy a second-hand MacBook.

I need to develop an iPhone application. I have Windows XP operating system. How can I configure iOS development environment in Windows XP?
You can't. iPhone development requires XCode, which only runs on Mac OS X.
On windows you could try to build native application using Web technologies, and software like http://appcelerator.com/ . You're using one of preferable web-languages (PHP, Ruby, etc.) and it will be converted to ObjectiveC.
On Windows you can't do that. But you can maybe do it on your pc. You could try to install a Mac OS on your PC. For that consultate http://osx86.thefreesuite.com/ or http://www.hackint0sh.org/. However this is not rellay easy and you main have some disadvantages, like not fully working XCode and so on. Additionally its not very easy to install.
You could also search in the Internet for a Mac OS image which can be virtualized on PCs (e.g. by using VMWare).
Note: this is not fully legal as far as I know.
There is no chance to develop an iPhone application on the windows...
and also you can't do it on other than mac pc(you must have iMac,Mac mini,or Mac book)
you can install a Mac OS on general non mac pc.
but you can't install iPhone SDK successfully on that system...
So there is no chance to develop iPhone Application on the Windows as wel as non-Mac machine...strong text
